Thanks to you, our 1st conference promises to be a stimulating gathering where the latest argumentation scholarship is presented, discussed and, no doubt, argued about.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Considering the high volume of submissions, we will be able to accept around <strong>50-60%<\/strong> of paper proposals. This means that we will now focus on selecting the very best from the proposals submitted. To this end, we have from the very beginning set up a strict process of <strong>double-blind reviewing<\/strong>. The process will be managed by the ECA\u2019s Programme Committee. Each abstract will be anonymously reviewed by at least two members of ECA\u2019s Scientific Panel of more than 50 experts in the field. Reviewers will assess the scholarly quality of each abstract taking into account its relevance to the main theme and perspective of the conference, as specified in the Calls for Papers we have distributed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Authors of proposals will hear from the Programme Committee by the <strong>1st of December<\/strong>. Meanwhile, if there is any reason for you to withdraw a submission \u2013 for instance your plans have changed \u2013 please do contact the PC as soon as you can.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We are confident we are working on an exciting conference where the best of the high-quality papers proposed will be presented. We will keep in touch with you and we hope to welcome you to Lisbon in June next year!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Marcin Lewi\u0144ski<\/em> and <em>Dima Mohammed<\/em><\/p>\n<p>On behalf of the<\/p>\n<p><em>ECA Lisbon 2015 Organising Committee<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>ECA Lisbon 2015 Programme Committee<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>ECA Steering Committee<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thank you for so many submissions!
